Abstract

A ball joint, in particular a chassis joint, which has a housing and a ball socket that comprises a ball bearing section for receiving a joint ball. An anti-rotation member prevents movement of the ball socket within the housing. To improve operational performance of the ball joint, the anti-rotation member is formed by a connecting element of the housing and a mating connecting element of the ball socket. The connecting elements have corresponding holding profiles so that, in an assembled condition, the connecting elements form a shape-enclosing plug-in connection.

Description

[0001] This application is a National Stage completion of PCT / EP2019 / 080144 filed Nov. 5, 2019, which claims priority from German patent application serial no. 10 2018 220 954.5 filed Dec. 4, 2018.FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to a ball joint, in particular a chassis joint, with a housing and a ball socket which, to receive a joint ball has a ball bearing section, and anti-rotation means which prevents any movement of the ball socket within the housing.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Such ball joints are known from the prior art and are used in particular for the movable fitting of chassis components. To ensure the permanent mobility of the chassis components, the ball sockets are fitted into the housing in a rotationally fixed manner, in order on the one hand to prevent them from rotating and thereby at least partially blocking the joint aperture, and on the other hand to avoid increased wear. For this, according to the prior art a number of alternative ...
